Laminated Safety Glass:
Our laminated safety glass is a robust and secure option that consists of two or more layers of glass bonded together with a durable interlayer. This interlayer ensures that the glass remains intact even when shattered, minimising the risk of injury. We offer various thicknesses, including the 6.38mm Laminated Glass option for enhanced safety and security.
Obscured Glass:
Obscured glass (or translucent laminate) provides privacy and adds a touch of elegance to interior spaces. This translucent laminate option allows light to pass through while obscuring the view from the outside. It is an excellent choice for partition and doors where privacy is a priority.
Tinted Glass:
Tinted glass offers both style and functionality by reducing glare and controlling heat penetration. We offer a variety of tones, including grey, green, and dark grey, to complement your architectural design and enhance energy efficiency.
Tempered Glass:
Tempered glass (6mm toughened) is known for its exceptional strength and safety features. It undergoes a heating and rapid cooling process, making it several times stronger than regular glass. In case of breakage, it shatters into small, harmless fragments, reducing the risk of injury.
Insulated Glass:
Our insulated glass units combine multiple glass panes with low emissivity (Low-E) coatings and gas fills to improve energy efficiency. They help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption while providing optimal light transmission.
Smart Glass:
Smart glass, also known as switchable glass, offers the convenience of adjustable transparency. With just a flick of a switch or a tap on your smartphone, you can control the level of opacity, transforming your glass from transparent to translucent and vice versa.
Double Glazed Glass:
Double glazed glass consists of two glass panes separated by a layer of air or gas. It provides excellent thermal insulation, reducing heat transfer and noise penetration. This energy-efficient solution helps maintain a comfortable environment and enhances acoustic performance.
